[QUOTE="Broz, post: 585149, member: 7503"] You are missing the point. The main problem area is where the reamer rolls up a burr and the reamer pilot makes mars in the oposite direction the bullet will travel. This is all done after it leaves the barrel manufacturer. Some cases are worse than others but all have some. I have seen the fouling go away in 6 shots, sometimes durring the 3 shot strings of break in. But what does it hurt? I guess I look at it differently. If I spend all that money on a custom, I want to break it in properly and do all I can to make it as good as it can be. Thanks but I don't need Gails advice, I have done it both ways with many many rifles in my 30 years of shooting. I feel the rifles I broke in properly shoot better and clean easier. You have your preference and I have mine. To each his own. Good shooting to ya. Jeff [/QUOTE]
